TD Ameritrade CFO to Retire at the end of Fiscal 2015
OMAHA, Neb., January 13, 2015 – TD Ameritrade (NYSE:AMTD), today announced that after sixteen years with the Company, nine as executive vice president and chief financial officer, Bill Gerber will retire at the end of fiscal 2015.
“Bill’s impact over the past 16 years is evident in every facet of our business. His guidance and expertise through rapid growth, mergers and acquisitions and the financial crisis have been instrumental to TD Ameritrade’s success,” said Fred Tomczyk, president and chief executive officer. “As CFO he has always provided sound fiscal management that has been instrumental in our ability to create one of the best run investment firms in the country. Over his tenure we have amassed more than $650 billion in client assets and moved from a non-investment grade to a single A credit rating.”
“I have had the unique opportunity to be a part of the transformation and growth of a truly extraordinary company,” said Gerber. “I am proud of the shareholder value that we have created, the strategic acquisitions we have made and the sound financial footing of the firm. I am also proud of TD Ameritrade and the people I have had the privilege to work with.”
As CFO, Bill oversees investor relations, business development, finance and tax functions. He started with TD Ameritrade in 1999 as director of finance and was promoted to CFO in 2006. Gerber was named to Institutional Investor Magazine’s “All America Executive Team” as one of the top 3 CFOs in the “Brokers, Asset Managers and Exchanges” category in 2012, 2013 and 2014.
